My issue with cons at this point is location, location, location! I go to Big Event because it's in Queens and I hop on the LIE and I'm there in under an hour. If Big Event went under and I was left with LOTR or another NJ con, I would just live without the Summer Rae's of the world I lack. I would ...

It won't be, but Citi Field Wrestlemania I may actually attend. As for Axxess, IDK what I'll do with that. I'd think I'll have most if not all of the VIP names, so that will be a wash. I could use some of the other people, but that's a crap shoot for the minor names.
